^CL “word” = logos. Same as “saying” in v37. See note CXXXII above.

^CLI “said” = lalia. Related to “speaking” in v26. 4x in NT. From laleo (see note LXXXIX above). This is talk, saying, the way one talks, a dialect.
^CLII “heard” = akouo. This is hear or listen, but it also means to understand by hearing. This is where the word “acoustics” comes from.
^CLIII “truly” = alethos. Related to “true” in v18 & “true” in v23 & “truth” in v23. 18x in NT. From alethes (see note LXIII above). This is truly, really, surely, truthfully, indeed. Properly, this is saying “in accordance with fact…” – what one is about to say can be proven and is true to reality.
^CLIV “Savior” = soter. Related to “salvation” in v22. See note LXXV above.
^CLV “world” = kosmos. Perhaps from the base of komizo (to carry, convey, recover); from komeo (to take care of). This is order, the world, the universe, including its inhabitants. Literally, this is something that is ordered so it can refer to all creation. It can also refer to decoration in the sense that something is better ordered and, thus, made more beautiful. This is where “cosmos” and “cosmetics” come from.
